Abstract
Book synopsis: The Effective Pre-school, Primary and Secondary Education study (EPPSE) has investigated the academic and social-behavioural development of a national sample of approximately 3,000 children across different phases of education, from the age of 3+ years to age 16. This Research Brief focuses on the relationships between a range of individual student, family, home, pre-school, primary and secondary school characteristics and students’ attainment at age 16, the end of compulsory education. It outlines the main findings about the factors that influence students' GCSE results and their academic progress across five years of secondary schooling from Year 6 to Year 11. For the full details of the GCSE research and the results of other analyses of EPPSE students' attitudes, social behaviour, and secondary school experiences at age 16, and their destinations after Year 11 see Sammons et al., 2014a, b, c and d; Taggart et al, 2014; Siraj et al., 2014 and Sylva et al., 2014.
